We kept the old ones for a long time after they were discontinued but someone threw them out eventually so now I just make less calls. Life is simpler that way.

I remember back when, if you lived in an American small town or rural community and you wanted to buy a pipe, you went down to the local drug store or general store (yes, they were still around), and your choices pretty much looked like this--

or this--

If you wanted anything other than this, your options were either catalog mail order (allow up to 4 weeks for shipping and cross your fingers that your payment didn't get lost in the mail), or travel to the nearest large city with a real tobacconist.


Times have indeed changed.
